Me on TV 1988-1989 Comedy Music Fair Use

http://www.ezpianochords.com/
Here are two of my TV appearances from 1988 and 1989. The VHS quality is not great. It is acceptable for Fair Use historical content. I notice in the lower quality settings at YouTube the audio and video are a bit out of synch but if you watch in the medium or high (720) settings it will look better. Herman Schmerdley was a name I used for radio and for many of my recordings and live shows. Chris Bearde is currently developing a comedy museum in Las Vegas.

Life is funny. Watching this video quickly became a Six Degrees of Separation exercise for me. Seems I'm just a couple degrees away from Featureman -- as when I was in college, I had a late night weekend radio job, as the operator playing the pre-recorded Gary Owens Show... AND (not sure I should admit this), a year later, I (briefly) met the Fat Boys when they guest-starred on an episode of Mr. T's show, T and T (for which I was a junior writer.). Thanks, Tom, this took me down memory lane.

@cyberwanderer Thanks. That is something I have noticed over the years also. Paths cross so amazingly over and over in show business. I will soon upload a video of myself at The Palomino Club in 1986. The way the name of the first owner, Hank Penny, is related to someone else I knew so well and so many other paths crossed there. The Fat Boys were very fun in those days. I think at least one of them has passed away.

Those were AWESOME!!! I knew you had been on there, so I searched youtube, but no luck. So thanks for posting those. I also heard Mona Lisa awhile back when someone posted it up here. I listen to that one quite a bit. Great stuff!

@dodadue89 Thanks, Andy. I did a couple of recordings on VHS and BETA years ago of Mona Lisa at The Palomino Club. I am looking for those old tapes. I don't know how the quality will be.

@Featureman I'd like to see those as well. I went through all my old tapes and whatnot over the past year and finally put them on DVD's. VHS and 8mm tapes have a unique quality.

@ontap55 Thanks. I have been very fortunate to have had fun for so many years and it is still fun with YouTube today. I will be looking for more oldies stuff.

@jackocloud Thank you.
